Issue - meetings

          The Board received a report from the Executive Director – Adults, which provided an update on the strengths-based training that was being rolled out to Adult Social Care (ASC) staff.

          Helen Sanderson Associates had been commissioned to deliver strengths based training to ASC staff to help them feel more confident and competent in delivering a strengths-based approach.  The report described the customer journey and the support sequence which was a seven step process. 

          Training would be delivered online via Zoom over two cohorts with a total of 250 staff. 

          The Board discussed the report and following questions raised, the additional information below was noted:

·       It was suggested that it would be helpful to have a discussion about the training at a future One Halton Partnership Board;

·       The Occupational Health Team would be able to provide advice for employees with complex needs, and welfare benefits could be accessed from Access to Work; and

·       Links had been made with Warrington Disability Partnership.

          RESOLVED:  That the Board:

1)    note the report; and

2)     agree proposals for future development.
